Neshaminy Creek The Shape of Hops to Come Can Release Jul. 1

Neshaminy Creek’s renowned The Shape of Hops to Come Imperial IPA is back this summer, hitting the brewery on Wednesday, July 1 when doors open at 4pm. While this initial release will be fairly limited, expect plenty more of this beer to hit distributors and bars in the coming weeks/months thanks to the brewery’s expansion project.

Cases and draft have already shipped to Bella Vista in SEPA, with shipments hitting Hunterdon in NJ the week of July 6.
